Display thread function always on (IDW)

[j.wolbers-NoTech]

Hi,

How do I ensure that the display thread function is always on for 2D drawings?

If it is not a standard feature of Inventor, is it possible to use Ilogic?

I have searched a lot but unfortunately I have not been able to find a solution.

Regards,

Jeffrey

you can use ilogic for example:

Dim drw As DrawingDocument= ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oview As DrawingView
For Each oview In drw.ActiveSheet.DrawingViews

oview.DisplayThreadFeatures = True
Next

Perfect.

Is there a way to prevent it from executing this rule on parts that are in the released or obsolete state in Vault? Can of course choose the event trigger '' New document '' but would like it to work with copied drawings. If I do the trigger '' after open document '' I don't think this will work with released drawings.

You can hook it on drawing save then it should work without problem due fact that when drawing is in vault it will be read only and will not be saved.

If you want other possibilities check it:

Hi @marcin_otręba 

I was a little too quick to respond...

I get the following error messages when I click in Inventor on (see image below): Open newest Drawing

it was run in part document or something:

corrected witch checking document subtype:

If ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.subtype="{BBF9FDF1-52DC-11D0-8C04-0800090BE8EC}" Then
Dim drw As DrawingDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oview As DrawingView
For Each oview In drw.ActiveSheet.DrawingViews
oview.DisplayThreadFeatures = True
Next
End If
